Friendly little fella on Rottnest Island, off the coast of Perth, Australia.
Going to Australia in a couple of weeks. Itinery is largely being shaped by my daughters' desire ti see Quokka om Rottnest.
For being known for their deadly animals, Australia sure does have a lot of cute animals. Pademelons are so cute.
Quokas are the deadliest!! They just have a better PR staff.
They're among the deadliest but you still have things like Drop Bears to worry about. You can see one being handled here with the appropriate protective gear. Note how it reflexively begins seeking its next potential prey in this frame captured just before the carnage unfolded. The rest of the video is out there but I don't recommend looking for it*.

If you insist, here's a link.
It looks like a real life teddy bear. Even though I know better, I really want to pick it up.
It was really hard not to, but so very illegal. There was a woman walking around with an osprey on her arm. I presume she was part of the anti-quokka-feeding patrol.
I’ve never heard such nonsense.
A place with minimal rules for stuff that makes you go awww! Feel free to post pics, gifs, or videos of cats, dogs, babies, or anything cute and remember to be kind to others.
